This document discusses heat transfer in cylindrical coordinates where heat only flows radially and the temperature changes with time. It notes an equation is used when the Biot number is less than 0.1, conduction can be ignored and the temperature is assumed uniform. A graph for a cylinder should be used, not another one mentioned, and L refers to half the wall thickness since the full wall is 2L.

ignore conduction and assume that the temperature is the same (assumption taken from the Long: Heat only in r direction Temperature changes with time. T USE GRAPH FOR CYLINDER NOT THIS ONE : Means 2 dimensions L because we need the T at the center of the wall. The wall is 2L
